P-32 SLUICE GATE

Product catalog summary

Overview: The Waterman Sluice Gate Model P-32 is a heavy-duty, self-contained gate designed for pipe end shut-off applications, commonly used in pumping stations, effluent ponding installations, and distributing boxes. It meets AWWA specifications and is available in sizes ranging from 6" to 14".

Specifications: The sluice gate is constructed from high-strength, close-grained cast grey iron with stainless steel non-rising stems featuring 29-degree acme threads. It is designed to handle 60-foot seating and 20-foot unseating pressure. The gate includes a circular opening and extended flangeback frame, with bronze seat faces and adjustable wedges.

Features: The P-32 model includes a 2" square operating nut, with options for a handwheel or alternate lifts. It is equipped with stainless steel assembly hardware and offers circular flangeback mounting with options for 25 lb. ANSI or 125 lb. ANSI drilling. The design accommodates various lift types.

Components: Key parts include a cast iron frame, cover, and guide rails, bronze wedges with stainless steel hardware, and a stainless steel stem. The gate can be configured with either non-rising or rising stem assemblies.

Dimensions: The gate dimensions vary by size, with specific measurements provided for sizes 6" through 14". Additional considerations include the thickness of the grout pad if applicable.

Typical Specifications: The sluice gate must be furnished with all necessary components for a complete installation, including wall thimble or anchor bolts, operating stem, and gate lift operator. All parts must meet AWWA Specifications C-501 and be interchangeable without special fitting. The frame and guide rails are cast iron, with machined and drilled pads for wedge devices. The cover is cast iron or bronze with reinforced pockets and machined wedge pads.

Seating Faces and Wedges: Bronze seats are permanently attached to the frame and cover. Wedges are corrosion-resistant, fully adjustable, and designed for watertightness. All fasteners and adjustment screws are corrosion-resistant.

Yoke: A cast iron yoke is included to transfer lift thrust to the gate frame and attaching hardware.
